Details

When using the advanced option in Tribe to create a partition in ext3, then in the partition-page format the same partition to ext4, results in the postinstall scripts installing as ext3, thus on reboot UUID of the targeted install partition is not found, resulting in boot to tty1.
First reported by Allan from Arch, can be duplicated in virtualbox or real hardware install.
This task depends upon

This is not just an issue when changing a chosen filesystem from advanced (using kpartitionmanager) and the partition-page, it is an issue when formatting any existing filesystem (that was already setup prior to starting a live session) in the partition-page to a different one.
The filesystem is always changed correctly on reboot, but while in Tribe the change is not done (yet?). fstab has the wrong filesystem listed, so even blkid fails.
